Really?? Soooooooo you have no reverse in your car? Ha ha. My MCPX has a 1gram weight in the nose. This way I get faster forward flight, seems that way anyhoo. But then reverse speed is much slower. The weight also helps if you try to fly outdoors in calm to very light breeze.

Good advice and nope. I just lock in the hubs crawling over anything in my path.

Anyway, the reason I'm posting about these here is that they're basically MCX2s but the custom transmitter that comes with them lets you set up a few really interesting features in a special "program" mode that you can put both it and the heli into. In addition to programming the "team color" and the output of the IR "gun", you can also put the heli into an "easy fly" mode which turns it into a mode 2 3-channel! I found this to be really, really cool because now my son, who is transitioning from the Syma S107G family doesn't have to worry about the aileron channel and can just worry about learning to fly with the rudder on the left stick. Neat!!! Now, I just need to get him a few more hours of training and I can get him to take on his old man in an "laser tag" style dogfight.

So, yeah, if you find a complete one on EBay (have to get the TX for it to get it to work) then it becomes a really great trainer for the kids. He's much more excited to fly a "gunship" that makes cool shooting noises than the boring old MCX now. LOL

Hey Guys n Gals,
I'm new to this thread having just ordered my mCX2 today.
It's being shipped overnight so I'm pretty excited right now.
This is my first excursion in to rotary flight!
Hey to North and Chap, fancy that, finding you guys on here.

I'd appreciate some suggestions for D/R and Expo settings for this bird. I'm using a Dx6i.
